Also, NO WAY teams will just let you get that ball of the field. Defenders will see offensive robots, and a ball. They will play defense. I don't see why they would stop because they know it's a dead ball. You can't play the match until that ball is gone, so they will be on it.
Take your pick a dead ball being moved off the field or a robot setting up for a 2 assist high goal.
Which way do you send the defense?
Do you stop the ball that is worth nothing or the ball that has 2 assists on it?
